Pictures, perspective and possibility
Philosophical Studies 149 (2):135 - 151 (2010)
Abstract
This paper argues for a possible worlds theory of the content of pictures, with three complications: depictive content is centred, two-dimensional and structured. The paper argues that this theory supports a strong analogy between depictive and other kinds of representation and the platitude that depiction is mediated by resemblance.
